A shy visitor

I’m just checking my roses for Japanese beetles, and I see something inside a flower that I can’t quite figure out. When I approach, a wonderful surprise unveils: a frog found shelter from the rain and predators among the rose petals. My unexpected little friend made my day. :-)

I’m glad I brought a good thing into your day, Alexandra! I just checked, and the little frog is back again. I think we have a regular visitor. :-)

Your photos are beautiful. I LOVE those little tree frogs. They are just so tiny and delicate. We have a bunch that have lived in the plants on our patio for (their) generations. In fact, last year I noticed tadpoles in one of my dog wading pools. This is the second year I’ve been a “tadpole mama!”

Debbie, I have maybe a hundred tadpoles here this year – inside an unfinished pond we have here in the front yard. They are so cute. When the frogs see me, they squeak and run. :-D
